The viewing platform at the top of the building offers a superb view of Frankfurt. Best view available in fact. It is however disappointing to look at the Commerzbank tower and realise that it is taller.

The fee is exeptable and the view by night was great, would have loved to do by daylight as well, maybe some next time. The elevator takes you 187m up high. You can see all the main attractions from a big platform.

it surprisingly took forever to find this place (and we got there at the same time as another pair of tourists who said the same thing) and it was closed for maintenance. I had been on the web sites before we left looking at places to go, and there had been no mention of this. I was really disappointed

If traveling to Frankfurt for the first time, this place has to be visited. The 360 degrees view is great from the top. 5 euros entry fee per person is totally worth it.

The highest building in Frankfurt (i guess). The view is breathtaking and you can see the whole city on one shot. Do not miss it.

The views from the top were terrific and if possible it would be good to go quite early as it does get busy as the day goes on. Also try to go on a clear day for maximum viewing distance. Loved it.

We visited the Main Towers during the Wolkenkratzer Festival (Skyscraper Festival) and it was free admission. Usually on last Saturday of the month museums are free so I don't know if it was free because it was the last Saturday of the month or because of the festival. The lines were long but moved quickly. We took elevator up 54... More

Great view over frankfurt and rhein main. You can go to the rooftop and enjoy the view of the city of frankfurt. Inside the maintower are the highest radio and television studio in europe.

The Main Tower is localized in the middle of frankfurt beside the highest building (the Commerzbank tower). One can visit the top of the building and the one has a very nice view over all of frankfurt as well as the airport. One can even see Darmstadt which is around 30 km to the south and to Hanau in the... More
